tukr Expands Restaurant Jobs In New York City To Help Employers

Wilmington, NC based tukr is making it easier for workers to find jobs in New York City restaurants. The platform has begun expanding its listings to include such jobs, and they are open to applicants from anywhere in the country. However, tukr strongly advises interested parties to do their research before making any commitments.

“If you want to work in a fast-paced environment in the food and beverage industry and you want to rely on your coordination, determination and passion, a restaurant job in NYC may be exactly what you are looking for,” states a representative from tukr. “We have noticed a growing demand for capable workers in this industry, and we are pleased to help local businesses fill their ranks with much-needed talent. Notably, many of the available opportunities do not require prior experience to get started. Those looking to get a foot in the door should start sending applications today.”

A variety of restaurant jobs are currently available, ranging from servers to lead cooks and so on. Those who already have some experience in these roles (or adjacent roles) are likely to stand out from their peers and find placement relatively quickly. However, tukr opines that the sheer demand for workers means many employers are willing to invest the time it takes to train those entering either the workforce or these specific roles for the first time, which essentially means the best opportunities may be made available to early applicants.

While the high demand means employers will take a chance on less experienced individuals, an applicant should still do everything they can to set themselves apart. As a first step, the platform strongly advises that applicants begin their job search by creating a resume that displays their capabilities in the best possible light. The platform says it is true that an employer is likely to receive hundreds of resumes for any opening, especially for entry-level roles, but this should not discourage applicants. With a few intelligent strategies, they may be able to form a connection with a potential employer that increases their chances of landing a job.

“An employer will always choose applicants that have something to offer,” states tukr. “You should take a close look at your existing skills and what you want to do to determine which roles you might be best suited for. If you can make a case for yourself, an employer may agree and give you the job. You should also keep in mind that you can take several steps to improve your skills even if you have no actual on-the-job experience.”

“If you want to become a chef,” says tukr in a blog post on the subject, “attending culinary school and earning a bachelor’s degree are both recommended. Many schools provide various culinary programs like baking and pastry arts, culinary arts, hospitality management, hotel/restaurant institutional management, etc. that will equip you with all of the training and experience required for becoming one.”

This is one example of a job that faces fierce competition, notably, so formal training can make a world of difference on a resume. The same may be true for other positions, but it is by no means the only metric an employer might use to determine an applicant’s capability.

For instance, a host or hostess at a restaurant should be able to deal with customers on a regular basis, especially during busy periods. An applicant who has previously worked in such a role may stand out the most, but tukr points out that employers may still consider anyone who has worked in demanding customer-facing roles in other industries as well.

The company states in their blog post, “Hosts and hostesses may seem like low-level jobs, but they play an invaluable role in customer satisfaction. Hosts must work harmoniously with other restaurant staff members to keep things moving smoothly; exceptional hostesses/hosts possess qualities of empathy, care, helpfulness and ability to cope with high volumes of restaurant traffic during peak hours.”

Anyone who finds themselves considering a job in the NYC restaurant industry may use tukr to start reaching out to potential employers. The platform also encourages applicants to take a look at their blog posts if they desire more insight on working requirements, pay, career opportunities and so on.
